While the rest of the nation mulls over the President's move to dodge the constitutional-reform issue by padding the Supreme Court, let's take up the case of John P. Frey, chief backbiter of the American labor movement at the moment. Frey has just issued a public statement attacking the sitdown-strike technique as "made in Moscow." Before that he successfully used his influence to get the Cleveland Federation of Labor to rescind its resolution indorsing Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) strike at local General Motors Corp. plants. And before that he had engineered a demand by metal and building-trades unions that General Motors reopen its plants and refuse to deal with the CIO outlaws.
